Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Chapter 373: Chapter 392 Aspire to be Strong

Eastern Province.

In a village close to the seaside.

Chu Yuan’s gaze fell upon the child on the street.

He was somewhat astonished.

Neither the village head nor the villagers knew about Mo Yin the Elder, yet this child did?

Could that be true?

Chu Yuan wasn’t the only one taken aback.

The village head and the villagers were also astonished.

“Is this Old Xu’s child? Take him back at once, stop him talking nonsense! Go and tell Old Xu! If his child has offended the Immortal Master, not even a thousand deaths would suffice to atone for the offense!”@@novelbin@@

The village head signaled to a villager with his eyes.

The words he uttered were stern.

But anyone with eyes could see.

This was not a scolding.

It was clearly a pretext to protect the child.

The villager beside him caught on instantly and hurried to carry the child away.

When the child saw someone coming to take him away, he dropped his milk can onto the ground without a second thought.

“Immortal Master, I’m telling the truth, I really know where Uncle Mo Yin is!”

The child became frantic.

Upon hearing this.

Chu Yuan could no longer stand idly by.

With a slight move, he appeared in front of the child, glanced at the approaching villager, waved his hand, and gestured for the villager to step back.

The villager, seeing the golden specks around Chu Yuan and with fear in his eyes, dared not say more and respectfully retreated behind the village head.

“Little guy, you say you know where Mo Yin the Elder is, is that true?”

Chu Yuan smiled at the child before him and asked.

“Immortal Master, I really know Uncle Mo Yin!”

The child declared with unwavering certainty.

“Uncle Mo Yin? You mean Mo Yin the Elder?”

Chu Yuan knelt halfway down, making sure the golden specks around him did not touch the child.

He gently reached out and touched the child’s head.

“Yes, Immortal Master, I heard Uncle Mo Yin say that he used to be called Mo Yin the Elder, he must be the same person.”

The child raised his little hand and said.

“Can you take me to see this Uncle Mo Yin then?”

Chu Yuan chuckled.

“Okay, Immortal Master, follow me.”

The child spoke.

Then turned around, picked up the milk can he had dropped earlier, and scampered off toward the village.

“You all can disperse now.”

Chu Yuan looked back at the village head and the villagers and spoke indifferently.

Immediately after, he stood up and followed the child.

The village head and villagers remained on the spot, watching the retreating backs of the mismatched pair with concern.

“Did Old Xu’s child go out of his mind, taking it upon himself to stop the Immortal Master from leaving? Now it’s gone too far. If the Immortal Master can’t find the person he’s looking for, the blame will fall on us, and our entire village will suffer.”

“That child has never been all there, still drinking milk at his age.”

“Speaking of which, where is this child leading the Immortal Master? Who lives in that direction?”

“Isn’t it just the three families that live in that direction? Old Chen’s Family, Old Liu’s Family, and Old Yang’s Family… wait a minute, Old Yang’s Family? That child often goes to Old Yang’s place, he isn’t going to find Old Yang, is he?”

“What kind of Mo Yin the Elder is Old Yang? What kind of joke is this? Although Old Yang often fiddles with his old zither, it’s impossible that he’s also a Cultivator!”

The villagers whispered among themselves.

Only the village head did not speak, just watching the backs of Chu Yuan and the child as they left.

After a moment had passed.

He slowly began to speak.

“Have any of you noticed something very strange? Since Old Yang came to the village, we have never thought about who Old Yang used to be, why Old Yang came to the village. It’s as if we’ve forgotten these things, as if Old Yang has always been a part of our village.”

The village head spoke in an eerily calm voice.

With those words.

The villagers were suddenly shocked, the place was in an uproar.

They found that things were just as the village chief had said.

They subconsciously overlooked the fact that Old Yang had previously had a different status, as well as the reason why he came to the village.

Even though Old Yang had suddenly appeared one day, they subconsciously ignored this point!

A thought emerged in the minds of these villagers.

Old Yang is not simple!

…

Meanwhile.

Elsewhere.

Chu Yuan was walking down the road with a child, looking curiously at the little one holding a milk jar.

“Little guy, why aren’t you afraid of me? I see that the village chief and the villagers are very respectful toward me, but you’re not scared at all. Why is that?”

Chu Yuan suddenly asked with curiosity.

He had been paying attention to the child’s expression.

Beyond some initial nervousness, the child had become more and more relaxed and at ease.

This was unexpected for Chu Yuan.

“Why should I be afraid of Immortal Master?”

The child turned his head and uttered these words.

“Hmm? Don’t you think I am very powerful?”

Chu Yuan, interested, asked with a smile.

“Immortal Master is very powerful, but Mo Yin the Elder told me that we shouldn’t fear the powerful, but should revere them; instead, we should aspire to be like them. I will certainly become as powerful as Immortal Master someday, so I’m not afraid of Immortal Master!”

The child looked up at Chu Yuan, his innocent eyes sparkling like countless stars.

“Not bad.”

Chu Yuan paused for a moment and then smiled, patting the child’s head.

He was somewhat astonished by this child.

He was about to use the System to probe and see the child’s template when.

A voice from afar, unhurried, reached them, interrupting Chu Yuan.

“Fellow Daoist, since you are here, please come over.”

At this, Chu Yuan’s gaze locked onto a normal-looking house not far ahead.

He looked down again.

He noticed the child showed no expression, as if he couldn’t hear what had just been said…

It seems he really did find the right Mo Yin the Elder.

Chu Yuan narrowed his eyes.

“Immortal Master, the house up ahead is where Mo Yin the Elder lives.”

The child pointed to the house and said.

“Alright, let’s go and have a look,” Chu Yuan said, temporarily setting aside the matter of the child’s template. He headed toward the house first.

The child followed closely behind him.

They arrived at the door of the house.

Chu Yuan reached out, intending to knock.

Before he could start.

The door automatically opened.

“Why stand on ceremony, fellow Daoist, and knock? Since when have people in the Cultivation Realm become so polite?” a middle-aged man with grey hair, an unremarkable appearance, and a gentle demeanour stood behind the door and spoke.

“Mo Yin the Elder?”

Chu Yuan raised an eyebrow and said indifferently.

“Indeed, people used to call me that. I’m still unaware of who you are, fellow Daoist. Have you come to this village for that ‘treasure’?”

The middle-aged man, ‘Mo Yin the Elder’, spoke slowly.

His eyes were fixed on Chu Yuan.

It seemed like he had already seen through the purpose of Chu Yuan’s visit.

Chu Yuan: “?”

What treasure?

He’d come here for a treasure? Why didn’t he know about this…
